    To a casual observer (me changing trains) it doesn't look as though they have made terribly much progress in the last few months in their huge project of modernizing and rebuilding the main railway station in Erfurt.

    But they do still seem to be hard at work, and when it's finished this should be a highly modern and efficient station, fitting for the large numbers of InterCityExpress (ICE) trains that stop here every day. The rebuilding of the station began in 2003, and is supposed to be finished by 2007.

    Possibly even more ICE trains will stop here in future years, if the proposed new high-speed line from Nürnberg via Erfurt to Leipzig is ever built. But even if it isn't (and I'm not at all sure it is a sensible idea, since it would be insanely expensive and would divert funds from other more urgent projects), Erfurt will still remain a major changing point between lines going off in various directions. (I changed here for Dessau, for example.)

    A 90 min ride by car or train from Leipzig or three hours by train or car from Frankfurt/Main.

    As Erfurt has a national airport it is so possible to get there by plane.

    If you arrive Erfurt by train the beautifully restaurated station is awaiting you.

    Parking in Erfurt

  • Parking in this region and even in the bigger towns is way cheaper than what we are used to in The Netherlands (where 2-3 euro per hour is normal).
    We stayed in Erfurt for 4 hours and paid € 4.80 total. The parking was under the central square where the cathedral is.

    Parkhaus Domplatz

    Tip: For € 2 you can do the "GutenAbend Parking" (good evening). You park from 18-24 hrs on day one and your car stays parked overnight until 7 in the morning.

    How to reach

  • Erfurt has an airport. Not big, but that little town has one. The website I uplodaded here.

    The next to reach is via Autobahn A4 (Berlin - Frankfurt/Main). From there you reach Bavaria (Coburg) via the new Thuringian Autobahn.

    I saw these in most towns. The people who operate these carriages seem to be knowledgeable of the town.
